Abandoned Farmhouse with Crow, Oregon by Austin Granger, on Flickr

I retired in 1999 and moved into a smaller house in 2008. Since my move I have been shooting old barns and farms, abadnon buildings, old depots, almost anything old, with vintage equipment. I have an 8x10 Deardoff about my age,born 1935, and my new camera is a Super Speed Graflex. Most lens are Ektar, with a few Wollensak in the mix. Film is Ilford Delta 100.

Here is a shot that started the barn and farms collection. This barn is what remains of a dariry farm, my development can be seen in the background.

Shot with my Deardoff and a 10 inch Ektar.

Jack,

One of the real deals of photography is serve as a memory tool. Numbering, catalog and ordering just puts some sort of availability of this raw visual thing.
Thanks for sharing those things, keep posting, world is watching,

Cheers,

Lovely tones on the photo. I'm used to seeing photos like this in bw and the color does make it stand out

I think the battleship Texas, BB-35, qualifies as an old thing. Made these two images with a Chamonix 045F1, the first on AristaEDU 100 and the second on TriX 320. Epson V700 scans. I had some uneven development in the first and tried to 'fix it'.

Silverfox,

Like a lot these last 2 pics, interiors with daylight only, also a joy to see how well Acros dealt with both ends of the contrast curve. What did you use to develop these negatives?

Cheers,

Renato

Yes thank you.
The last pic was taken at f22.8 for 8 seconds (lightmetered) with a nikon 90mm sw f8 with Acros 100. Tray developed in Pyrocat HD 1:1:100 for 9:30 minutes at 68F.
When i agitate i physically remove the neg 'emultion side up' from the dev a re-immerse it in the dev emultion side up. I pic it up from its edges.
The first 30 seconds i agitate 6-7 times then agitate 3 times at the begining of every other minute.

These pics are straight form a scan with no editing
Moving the tray from side to side gives me uneven dev and flat negs. I dont know what i'm doing wrong so gave up on that method.

Hi,

Ah, pyro... Keep that way, it's coming pretty good, as others have cited before if it's not broken, don't fix it,



Cheers,

Renato
